Martianus Capella wrote two books about grammar, logic, rhetoric, arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy. He wrote these books because he did not want any of these things to be lost, and the literacy rates in the Dark Ages were high.The two books are called Trivium and Quadtrivium. Not many books were written because many people did not know how to read or write.
